The trump trade wars have worked so well that trump is now doubling down, and while he

[still_one]

is using China as the recipients of this, he has quietly been pushing this to a lesser degree against our allies

We are already in depression territory, I guess trump want to insure it

[beachbumbob]

1. what is he doing now?

[still_one]

2. He is talking about a couple decoupling of the US from China, and curb economic dealings

with China

While that may sound good to some, there are a lot of products we sell to China.

Aircraft, soybeans, motor vehicles and microchips are top U.S. exports to China.

These unilateral outbursts do not end well economically

5. So many farmers have already suffered

from Trump's awful trade policies, this will make things even worse.

6. That is one of the issues hardly talked about. This is not how you negotiate

It is now reporting that the U.S. is now penalizing Chinese companies they are accusing of using forced labor

This "sudden concern" about human rights directed exclusively at China, and strangely ignoring abuses of other governments such as Russia, I am sure is just coincidental

[PatSeg]

8. Yes, we hardly hear about this in the news

but with Trump there is always so much to report on any given day, it is hard to keep up. Trump's petty grievances and reckless policies are destroying our economy, the economy that he loves to brag about.

9. Right now he believes his anti-Chinese rhetoric will boost his election chances. More likely it wil

cause the economy to be even more depressed, and I expect the stock market will also start getting nervous with his "shooting from the hip" nonesense

[PatSeg]

11. Lately, he's gotten more reactive than ever

and that makes him more impulsive and reckless. I'm quite sure he's not listening to any advise from his campaign staff, because he knows best; "gonna do it my way" and right now "my way" is pretty unhinged.

[still_one]

12. I agree

7. No worries. They get their relief check and vote him in again.

Have you seen the signs in dump country? They are as big as a house with the turd's name dotted all along the highway. We travelled the stretched of Wisconsin from Green Bay to LaCrosse and I was nauseated to see those signs propped up the entire stretch of the trip.

[PatSeg]

10. Yes, that dawned on me

but not all farmers have been able to survive his policies. The support of Trump in rural areas is still mind-boggling. These are people who in a different era, would have been Democrats.

3. Has he figured out tariffs work, at least?

[Miguelito Loveless]

4. He is burning the system down

so he can blame Biden when it collapses after he is forced out.
